RCA 8T241

I decided to take a few days off from customers' restorations to look into one from my own collection. This is an RCA 8T241 from eBay that was in pretty good electrical shape, so I decided to tackle it as a mini-vacation. I just had a "tough dog" case involving a Bendix with a badly damaged I.F. transformer and no available replacement that I had to pack up and ship home unfinished. Here's a shot of the 8T241 after the initial testing. The set has picture and sound after re-forming the electrolytics, checking for bad paper caps and replacing two I.F. tubes. I'll turn it on and post a pic of it running that 5" test CRT later today.
